Godiawala, under whose guidance we have charted out our future plan

for Academic as well as Research Activities and I also thank Dr Parag

Patel, asso dean AMSOM and his team for their co-operation on

campus.

I express my heartfelt gratitude to the H L College Alumni Association

for the magnificent gesture of giving back to their Alma Mater

unstintingly and magnanimously. This year they have completed the

project of greening of our cricket ground at an overall cost of Rs. 33

Lakhs. The project is amply supported by the AES.

The HL College Alumni Association has also conducted numerous

academic and cultural programs throughout the year for the benefit of

its members and the students of the college.

I would like to remind our T Y B.Com students to become member of

the H L College Alumni Association.

“Unity is strength….. when there is teamwork and collaboration

wonderful things can be achieved”. For this I thank my faculty, staff

and students for all their joint efforts in bringing such multiple

accomplishments that are worth celebrating.

Thank you all for a patient hearing.
